Fatty Runs The World To Fix His Broken Heart. Becomes Youtube Legend

You probably know the story of Forrest Gump. Well, imagine a fatty Tom Hanks running through Europe to get over a broken heart.
The story is about Radu Restivan and he started his journey in Romania. He ran the mountains, discovering places in the countrysides he had no idea they existed and making new friends along the way. Something extraordinary started to happen: slimming down in no time. That was the moment he decided to buy a go pro and head to Berlin. That journey led him to another idea: “Discover the World through its marathons” – a new concept combining travelling with jogging. He creates videos in which he runs marathons in different countries (Greece, video) and plays the travel guide for his followers.
He usually finish in last, but wins thousands of views on YouTube. Eventually, what matter the most is the journey, not the destination.

Fatty Tom Hanks needed to be disappointed in love in order to find his true purpose in life. Forrest Gump-ish-like, he inspired other people to jog also. Now he trains newbies for Bucharest marathon in a program called “From 1 to 21”.

Good luck, people!

So yeah, sometimes we think we run away from something, but, in reality, we just started to run the marathon of our lives.

What do you think ?

Hi, guys! I'm the fatty from the story :))
Here's the video I did in Bucharest, my home city: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRKh2wFW2OU
And the Berlin one, hope you'll like them :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ye2sQ0QPaHc
And if you want to see the Romanian tracks (but videos are in Romanian), here's a list: https://youtu.be/rI2_xbl7Czc?list=PLy8dPuCzWe0RYVbUac4vOFqFZeKKbfkD7

Inspiring story, but pretty offended about the title and throughout the text, the author of this article keeps calling Mr. Radu Restivan a "fatty". Seriously what is the author thinking? We already live in an awful society where fat-shaming is a norm. Way to go Mihaela Coman, way to get on the bandwagon and make a potentially great piece of article into something that makes me irked. Yeah you should be ashamed of yourself but probably blow off my comment like it's nothing.

Hi, I'm Radu from the story. During my life I've heard "fat ****", "fat-so" and so many others. I don't find "fatty" disturbing, I kinda like it. And it's nothing bad in being fat - happiness doesn't look at weight! (though I had some problems while trying to tie my shoelaces in the past!). Have a great day!

I understand and respect your point of view. I imagine if we start speaking with ease about some facts, they will become so mainstream that pleople dealing with them will stop feel ofended. Imagine that a word holds a lot of energy. If you say it often and stop making it a 'tabu' this word will be discharged. Saying out loud in a bold title 'fatty' feels like a release, there's no longer shame in it.
All love to you!
